First HAPPY FATHERS DAY to all of you that are Dad's, Grandpa's, and Step-Fathers!
Yesterday I featured the COPO Camaro and thought it would be a good idea to follow-up with a "Muscle Car that was spelled Y-E-N-K-0". This HUGGER ORANGE Camaro didn't come from a Chevy catalog or even the brain-child's of the Chevy division. It was an idea from the mind of one very determined Chevy dealer...Don YENKO in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. Ordering from General Motors Central Office Production Order (COPO), Yenko swapped the Camaro's factory engine with the Corvette's big-block 427 V-8, added some heavy-duty hardware and performance upgrades, and from it a Muscle Car Classic was born!
A Monster Muscle Car from Danbury Mint!

George busy Sunday for me, so I missed this one, but I will have to agree with you and Bob on this one as well. I have a total of 36, 67-69 Camaros on my shelves from different manufacturers.

It looks like a nice one. I passed on it, thought I had enough Camaro models at the time.
